Ang Lee Set For DGA Lifetime Achievement Award


The Directors Guild of America has set two-time Oscar-winning filmmaker Ang Lee to receive its 2025 Lifetime Achievement Award at the DGA Awards in February.

“For over 30 years, he has directed a dynamic body of work that boldly cuts across genres – from period drama to comedy, adventure to western, superhero to martial arts – always fearlessly taking on new challenges, never repeating himself, and consistently achieving cinematic excellence.” ” “Through his films, Ang invites his audiences to explore complex characters that linger in your heart and mind long after the screen has gone dark,” Glatter added. “From his earliest features like The Wedding Banquet to artistic and commercial successes like Brokeback Mountain, Life of Pi and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Ang’s work is consistently recognized by critics, festivals and audiences for its brilliant storytelling and technological innovations.
